Chapter 88 Dare to touch my things?
"Do you have any thoughts on the village being chosen as the next target?" Mu An asked.
The old village chief was an honest man and spoke bluntly.
"Life and death are determined by fate, while wealth and honor are bestowed by heaven. At my age, I've seen it all!"
"There are many things that we common folk simply cannot decide."
"I'm not afraid to tell you Immortals, before you arrived, I had already persuaded many of the young people in the village to leave."
"Regardless of whether the village slaughter happens in the end, they are the hope of the future. It's enough for us old things to guard the village."
These words made Mu An and the others fall silent.
In this world, the weak never have a voice, and this includes their own lives.
Mu An exhaled slowly and suddenly asked another question.
"So, you've already prepared yourself for people in the village to die?"
"There's nothing to prepare. People die every day. Maybe the next one will be me!"
Regarding such matters, the old village chief appeared quite open-minded.
Mu An nodded.
Then, he called out.
"Nina!"
The young girl understood instantly.
She aimed the muzzle of the desert eagle directly at 'Liu Hao' beside the old village chief.
"Im... Immortal, what do you mean by this?"
'Liu Hao' was terrified, acting very panicked, and subconsciously raised his hands.
He looked just like an ordinary villager, harmless to humans and animals.
"Immortal, what is this...?"
The old village chief was also very shocked.
He couldn't understand why Mu An and the others would point a 'Magical Artifact' at his youngest son.
"I'll give you a chance to say your last words."
Mu An grinned.
"Immortal, forgive this commoner's ignorance. I don't know what crime I have committed?"
'Liu Hao' acted very fearful.
And beneath the disguise, Tang Geng was also muttering to himself, wondering if Mu An was bluffing.
But truth be told, he really felt a fatal threat from the 'strange Magical Artifact' in that girl's hand.
This made him want to retreat, and he began to plan his escape route in case his disguise was exposed.
"Is there a problem with him?"
Xiao Qingzhu stepped forward and asked.
But she looked left and right and couldn't see anything wrong with this 'Liu Hao'.
But since Mu An dared to say this and do this, there must be a reason!
"Yeah."
"If nothing goes wrong, he is the evil Cultivator behind this village slaughter."
Mu An nodded, exposing his true identity.
Hearing this, Tang Geng's heart skipped a beat.
This man wasn't guessing; he was directly calling him out by name. He might as well have been pointing at his nose and cursing.
Although he didn't know how he was exposed, under the dark muzzle of that 'Magical Artifact', for the sake of safety, Tang Geng decided to retreat temporarily.
"Immortal, this is a huge misunderstanding..."
As the last word 'misunderstanding' fell, Tang Geng immediately threw a dagger at the old village chief.
He himself had wind under his feet, stepping with ghostly footwork to leave quickly.
And after being warned by Mu An, Xiao Qingzhu was well-prepared.
She blocked in front of the old village chief in time and deflected the dagger.
Nina also didn't go easy on him, decisively firing and accurately hitting the 'moving target'.
Tang Geng had thought he could use the multiple phantom shadows created by his special footwork to interfere with the opponent's judgment.
But he never expected that he would still be hit.
Moreover...
He looked down at his torso, half of which had been blown away, and couldn't help but spit out these words.
"This Magical Artifact... is so strong..."
"Yeah, thanks for the compliment."
Mu An silently gave a thumbs up to this guy's 'good eye'.
...
"Little Mouse! My little Mouse!"
Seeing his 'youngest son' die on the spot, the old village chief burst into tears, and soon his face was covered in tears.
He seemed to have not yet realized what had happened.
At this time, the Ring-Blade Strongman and the others also rushed over here.
"What happened?"
They had originally entered the village to accept the warm welcome of the villagers and were preparing to enjoy the banquet.
Although it was just ordinary food and not necessarily very delicious, the attitude of these villagers did make people very satisfied.
It completely satisfied their vanity as 'Immortals' in a high-and-mighty position.
As a result.
A 'murder case' suddenly happened here.
"Old geezer, stop wailing! Your crying is giving me a headache!"
"Also, this kid is wearing a human skin mask; he's not your son!"
"Your son probably died a long time ago."
The strong man carrying the ring-blade had a short temper.
After briefly checking the dilapidated corpse, he discovered something 'weird' on its face.
Tearing it open, he found it was another person's face, and immediately roared at the old village chief behind him.
Hearing this, the old village chief's vision went black, and he was so grief-stricken that he fainted on the spot.
The other villagers rushed up to support him.
And compared to what the Ring-Blade Strongman was concerned about.
The White-Clothed Scholar and the bald monk were obviously more concerned about what kind of Magical Artifact could cause such terrifying injuries to this person.
At the time, the three of them were not present.
Among the seven people present.
Leaving aside the elderly village chief and this guy who had already been finished off, the only people who could have made a move were Mu An and his group.
Is it this woman?
The two silently cast their gaze toward Xiao Qingzhu, who was the only one with spiritual power fluctuations.
Currently, she was the biggest 'suspect'!
"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll give you a shot too!"
Renée was very annoyed by this scrutinizing gaze and retorted directly.
She herself was also level 70, which, converted to this world's Realm, was the Qi Refinement Stage 7th layer!
Not to mention, besides her own cultivation, like Mu An and the others, she was also an elf holding 'truth' in her hands.
What is a mere Qi Refinement Stage. Even if a Foundation Establishment Stage came, they would have to kneel!
Being told this, the White-Clothed Scholar and the bald monk tacitly averted their gazes.
They might not be afraid of Renée, this 'ordinary person', but they were still wary of Xiao Qingzhu beside her.
At the same time, they were also secretly pondering what exactly that 'gun' mentioned was, and what kind of Magical Artifact it was.
"What a buzzkill!"
"Only found some worthless things on him."
"This guy had cultivation, I don't know if he was the evil Cultivator who agreed to slaughter the village..."
The Ring-Blade Strongman grumbled.
It seemed he still wanted to claim Tang Geng's belongings as his own.
Mu An took out his gun and aimed it at him, smiling slightly.
"Who... allowed you to touch our spoils of war?"
For a moment.
The situation became tense again.
For some reason, looking at that dark Magical Artifact, a fatal sense of crisis inexplicably arose in the Ring-Blade Strongman's heart.
It seemed that once the opponent activated this Magical Artifact, he himself would end up playing the game of 'acting' as a real corpse like Tang Geng lying on the ground.
And seeing this scene, the White-Clothed Scholar and the other man were instantly filled with awe.
Perhaps this was the 'gun' that the woman mentioned.
The design was indeed very strange; it was just hard to tell how powerful it was.
"Put it down, or else... die!"
Mu An's muzzle pointed to the ground.
It was always his rule to rob others; there was no such thing as others taking advantage of him.
Finally.
The Ring-Blade Strongman did not choose to be stubborn.
Cultivators who could reach this Realm were not fools; they knew who could be provoked and who absolutely could not.
Don't look at his rugged appearance; in fact, he was very delicate inside.
He had clearly found quite a few good things earlier, but he had deliberately claimed that he hadn't found anything valuable.
If Mu An hadn't spoken up decisively afterward, he might have really embezzled it quietly.
